Can somebody explain this to me? The alcohol would seem to counteract any benefits of drinking red wine, to my mind.One thing I don’t understand — if resveratrol is found in the skins of red grapes, then why don’t people just eat red grapes instead of drinking red wine?

Drinking wine damages the brain more than beer or spirits, scientists claim.
They say it particularly affects the hippocampus, the part of the brain associated with memory and spatial awareness, and one of the first areas to be affected by Alzheimer's disease.

They found the hippocampus, which is located deep within the brain's temporal lobes, was up to 10 per cent smaller in those who drank
The team of psychiatrists behind the study said: "This is the first study investigating the impact of the type of preferred beverage on brain-volume shrinkage in patients with alcohol dependence."
The study compared brain scans from diagnosed alcoholics with those from healthy adults. In non-alcoholics the hippocampus was 3.85ml.
In beer drinkers it was 3.4ml, in spirit drinkers 2.9ml and for wine drinkers it was the smallest, just 2.8ml. The hippocampus is located deep within the brain's temporal lobes and is also one of the first areas of the brain to be affected by Alzheimer's disease. Memory, navigation and spatial awareness can all be affected, and it can also cause feelings of disorientation.You might need a few hundred glasses of red wine to get the benefits you need… that and drinking has some real negative consequences also.
